as we critics say genre movies and the festival's or one of the things that happened at the last cannesfestival is that yearly from all the programming director of my kind of person. said in the beginning that what changed is the relationship between the festival and desirable viewers because ten years ago it was something. slightly and decent to present a successful tsar movie in the big festivals now it's a rule for the biggest festivals who pay attention to this kind of product will you will you try to to to make it a tradition to open the must film festival with their world premiere. i think that it should be a world premiere but it might be a russian film world one year or a baby european film what i am against a general rule set up necessarily hollywood not. so the cio perhaps the chaney's film world. and what's important to say is that this kind of movies have a specific static while it is and well one of the what it is a paradox because for example the beginning of the thank you century the great artist said well we are hoping that it will be art for the art say that only the fo

view let's say from an artistic point of view or like from the film the artist which was shown in cannesit's a black and white film but well present from the. silent film to the doctor it's very funny very well done with a variable director on the other hand they find that their the film will do a program called the third age world elderly people will be interesting for some audiences not for the teenagers of transformers but the opposite and especially have been able to clap on the film of gold the so-called new it's kind of the whole comedy when tony barretto from current also and there is also a film sex and zed which is considered the first erotic film in three d. never made. it so it will be a night screening of course not for children but it will be one of the sensations of the first story so he you mentioned children couple of times i have never seen a lot of children a major. film festivals you do you really mean children are going to want to watch films of moscow for we have a special something that we have specials. really nice all of our are often any mated film we want to sho

countries don't have the possibility to when it's such a versatile of we the greatest festival of the cannesvenice and berlin film festivals and moscow is part of the second group which includes moscow montreal and canada. no london is not part of the group not the. there and noncompetitive a long of a long festival twenty five days so then look ardor in switzerland sunset in spain and karlovy vary in the czech republic and moscow competes with these festivals for world premieres of interesting films and i fortunately we can't compete with the big three there is a movement downside for the billions. first of all and the movement upside for the moscow show my hope is that if i leave low enough that moscow will become the third first. or second group. ok well let's hear more about one of the oldest film festivals in the world in a report by spotlight on the jimmy there where. it might have all started with what you marilyn and proclaim in cinema the most important of the arts anyway judging by this monument to what camera in moscow that of filmmaking is clear worshiped in russia and that is ce

it seems to me that we do have -- something, some serious disconnect, and why that is, you know, i cann imagine. i am going to say to you all that your testimony has been abundantly clear. but i want to for a moment go back to mrs. terry. you know, i often say right now i am preparing to do a eulogy saturday, one of the things i am thinking about as i sat here, i do believe part of life is death, but also part of death is life. and what i mean by that is that, you know, we can't fully understand why somebody would leave us so young. particularly somebody like your son, your relative, who was so full of courage and the fact that he was willing to basically die for his country. we cannot always understand it. and i think we all struggle with it, particularly when it is a young person. but i can say this, that believdeep in my heart that some kind of way out of his death will come life. in other words, the mere fact that we're here right now, mr. hell yard, talking about this, the mere fact that this was not something that just shoved under the rug and moving on, the mere fact that there a
